Memorial Day Murph 2022

by crossfitmomm, posted in CrossFit Workouts

Today I did CrossFit Hero Workout Murph.

Murph consists of:

  • 1 mile run
  • 100 pull ups
  • 200 push ups
  • 300 air squats
  • 1 mile run

It is one of my absolute favorites. It was the first CrossFit Workout I ever did, and it hooked me. It’s such a great workout and a great way to honor those who have served our country. Such euphoria today. Doing these workouts truly makes you appreciate the wonderful like we have here in the United States.

CrossFit Hero WOD: Murph at Home

Memorial Day weekend is a very special weekend in the CrossFit community. It’s a weekend where almost all CrossFit gyms program the CrossFit Hero Workout Murph, in honor of Lt. Michael Murphy, who died protecting our freedom.

The CrossFit Hero Workout Murph is:

  • Run 1 mile
  • 100 pull ups
  • 200 push ups
  • 300 air squats
  • Run 1 mile
  • Wearing a weight vest (20 lbs men, 14 lbs women)

It’s a test of endurance and mental fortitude.

This year was the first year I did it alone at home. I did it early in the morning before it got hot, and it felt special being alone, as if it meant more to honor Murph’s sacrifice for us.

This is one of my all time favorite workouts. It was the first one I ever did when I first took a CrossFit class, and I still remember how I couldn’t move afterwards. I’ve done Murph now a dozen times and will do it again probably another dozen. It never gets old; it’s always challenging; it’s the least we can do to honor such a hero.
